What are the advantages of Invisalign?
CLEAR
Invisalign is a series of clear plastic aligners (they look like clear retainers) that move your teeth. Invisalign uses advanced 3-D computer imaging technology to manipulate your “virtual” teeth into the desired position. Instead of wearing braces and wires, with Invisalign the plastic aligners place pressure on your teeth in a systematic way to cause movement. Since they are clear, no one knows you’re wearing them. Invisalign is virtually an invisible way to get the smile you want – no “train tracks!"
CLEAN
Invisalign aligners are removable. You wear them all day, but remove them to eat, and to clean your mouth. This means that you get to keep your teeth and gums clean and at their best while you are undergoing orthodontic treatment. As your dental care team, we love this feature of Invisalign, because along with straight teeth we love to see healthy teeth.
COMFORTABLE
Invisalign aligners are very smooth and comfortable to wear. They exert the most pressure the first day you wear them, and most patients tolerate this easily. Since you change your aligners every 2 – 3 weeks, this means that the “pressure” days are only once in a while. The longer you wear them each day, the more comfortable they feel.
